ONE week on from the attack, police have revisited the spot where a teenage girl was raped in a bid to find out more about what happened.

On Monday officers from Surrey Police stopped passers-by and dog walkers, asking them whether they were in the area when the assault happened, between 4pm and 4.10pm on May 21.

The 16-year-old victim was taking a shortcut that starts at the Elliot Park Industrial Estate in Aldershot and leads to a footbridge across the A331 Blackwater Valley Relief Road towards Ash. She was attacked on a footpath through com-mon land near Ivy Road recreation ground, on the Aldershot side of the bridge.

The officer leading the investigation, detective inspector John Cable, said that officers spoke to around 20 people on Monday.

“The location is popular with local dog walkers and pedestrians although it is fairly secluded,” he said. “The man may have connections in the area and therefore someone may know who he is.

“If you do recognise him, please come forward — any information will be dealt with in the utmost confidence.”

The suspect is aged between 20 and 25 and is believed to be a foreign national as he appeared to only speak a few words of English.

He is slim, around 5ft 6in tall, with short dark hair, brown eyes, tanned appearance and long dirty fingernails.

He was wearing black jeans, black trainers and a black

T-shirt with short sleeves. It was baggy and well worn with a white circular motif on the front and white writing which was peeling off.
